Profile
Meet has been associated with Avani Enterprise since 2016 and now leads its structural engineering practice. He is a California Licensed Professional Engineer (CA #93176) with more than eight years of experience designing and detailing structures in the United States.
His work spans hospitals, industrial plants, recreation centres and homes — from new steel and concrete frames to seismic retrofits of existing buildings, anchorage of mechanical equipment and forensic condition surveys.
He brings that discipline — rigorous analysis, clean detailing and clear technical writing — to Avani Enterprise’s projects, and coordinates structure with plumbing and MEP from day one.
